If pain has a forecast

07

The author didn't do anything wrong to me. But I was having a hard time, so I decided to just hate the author. Of course, I hate him not as a curator, but as just a human being, Yoon Yeo-joo. I decided to hate my senior, Kim Seok-jin, not the author. I thought if I didn't, my feelings for him would grow.

김석진

Should we go to the hospital?

윤여주

No. If you don't mind, could you please just drop me off in front of my house?

김석진

Do I need to go to the hospital?

윤여주

It's okay. It'll get better soon after steaming.

김석진

Can you drop me off here?

윤여주

Yes, thank you so much for coming today. Take care on your way home.

김석진

Is this the curator's house?

윤여주

yes.

김석진

We're really close, aren't we?

윤여주

Oh, yes... that's right.

김석진

Let me know if you need anything.

윤여주

Hey, author, don't worry about it and just go in.

김석진

Well then... I'll go.

윤여주

ah···!

My ankle didn't seem to be in a condition that could be improved with just a hot pack. I hopped on one foot, and when it got too much, I walked slowly and carefully, and finally made it home.

As soon as I got home, I lay still on the bed, and all sorts of thoughts came to mind. The author was so kind to me. I even had the absurd thought that maybe he liked me. I was so sad that I hurt my ankle trying to avoid him that I suddenly burst into tears.

It's not that I'm sad because I hurt my ankle, but it's just that I keep crying because the author keeps ignoring me. But I don't want to say anything. The author and I are destined to never be together.

윤여주

I was living well, so why did you show up...

What... I was the one who begged to meet her in the first place. That's why it's even more annoying. Who would have thought that writer would be my senior?

[Documentary filming day]

윤여주

Curator Kim, I'm really sorry...

김태형 큐레이터

Curator, you have nothing to be sorry about. Actually, I'm glad I did. I'm also taking on the role of documentary director this time.

윤여주

No... I'm really sorry. Why isn't this getting better...

김태형 큐레이터

The hospital told me that I needed to rest to get better quickly. The curator kept moving, and it got worse.

윤여주

I have a favor to ask...

김태형 큐레이터

Don't worry. You don't distrust me, do you?

윤여주

No! Curator Kim is so talented... I'm just feeling so bad. I was the one who suggested I take care of the exhibition hall...

김태형 큐레이터

Then don't be sorry. If you say sorry, I'll take it that you don't trust me.

윤여주

Ah... yeah, thanks for your hard work. Thank you!

김태형 큐레이터

I'll pack it in. Curator, just trust me and relax. If you worry too much, things won't get better!

윤여주

Okay lol thank you!!

I hurt my ankle and thought it was healing a little, so I tried moving around, and it just went back to normal. I said I was preparing a documentary, but in the end, I couldn't film it. In fact... it might have been a good thing. I thought I might cry while filming.

Time flew by, and the exhibition opening day arrived. I'd thought the promotion had been a bit lacking, but more visitors than expected showed up. I was thrilled from day one, knowing the artist would love it.

김태형 큐레이터

Curator! The documentary suddenly stopped showing.

윤여주

I'll go quickly,

김태형 큐레이터

No, curator, lol. Please listen to me until the end.

윤여주

huh?

김태형 큐레이터

I told you not to do it, so I put it back in place.

윤여주

Oh, really? Good job. That was a close call. Is the author here?

김태형 큐레이터

Yes, you made a very cool appearance.

윤여주

Really? Hahaha, hey, author!

김석진

There are a lot of visitors. Are you nervous?

윤여주

Don't be nervous. I told you, it'll be okay.

김석진

That's right.

김남준 관장

Author Kim Seok-jin, are you here?

김석진

Yes, it's been a while. Thank you for your consideration today.

김남준 관장

I also ask for your help. Let's start with Curator Yoon.

윤여주

yes

윤여주

Ah, first of all, I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to all the visitors who visited the Utta Art Museum today. I'm Yoon Yeo-ju, senior curator at the Utta Art Museum.

윤여주

Yes, we'd like to welcome the star of this exhibition, artist Seokjin Kim, a landscape lover. Please give him a big round of applause.

Clap clap clap clap clap

김석진

Hello. This is Kim Seok-jin. First of all, I'm so happy that so many people came to see my first exhibition. And I'm truly honored to be hosting my first exhibition at Utteo. This is the first time I've showcased my paintings to so many people, so I'd appreciate it if you'd appreciate their beautiful presentation...

···

윤여주

Author, what do you think?

김석진

It still doesn't feel real. The exhibition hall is so beautiful, and I think it'll stay in my memory for a long time.

윤여주

I'm glad you like it.

G

Author...! I'm a fan. Can I ask for your autograph just once...?

김석진

You're my... fan?

윤여주

Well, take your time, author.

김석진

Oh, yes!

The exhibition was going well, and as the closing time approached, I noticed that every visitor coming out of the documentary screening room had a sad expression on their face, as if they were shedding tears.

It certainly didn't seem like there was anything that would make me cry, but I sat quietly at the back of the theater and checked again to see if there was a problem.

There was no problem watching it over and over again, and when the ending I knew came and I thought, 'What is this?', there was more content after that.

윤여주

What the. I'm sure you checked it well...

김석진

“As soon as you enter the exhibition hall, the large piece hanging in front of you is titled ‘Traffic Light and the Beginning of First Love.’ It’s my favorite painting.”

김석진

"The first love I met back then was the one who brought me into the light when I was trapped in the darkness. I thought I'd never see her again... but I did. She was so close."

김석진

"I really want to say I'm sorry. I can't believe how frustrating and frustrating it must have been for me not to recognize you. I want to take this opportunity to say I'm sorry."

김석진

"He was a true light to me, but when I think about how much he must have suffered because of me, I don't want to hold on to him anymore. I just want him to be happy."

김석진

"I am who I am today because of you. I express my gratitude and apologies to my first love, who helped me become who I am today. I am truly grateful and sorry for not recognizing you."

김석진

“To that friend who was my first love in high school...”

I cried so hard my makeup practically melted off. The screening ended, perhaps because the screening time had passed. I stared at the blank screen, lost in thought, and cried. The tears wouldn't stop.

I never thought he'd recognize me so suddenly, and it was even sadder because it happened so suddenly, like I'd never planned for something like this. I never thought he'd recognize me.

김석진

My lady...
